It is not at all enough to simply say “here is what is meant,” and then in so many words state it. No personal discovery by the student has been made by a teacher’s plain statement of fact, We want a creative study of the Bible. We desire to produce the situation and the tools by which you build your beautiful temple of Bible knowledge, Here are teach- ing aids that truly teach - The Bible Study Textbooks. Don De Welt 9 PROLOGUE My heart was made happy when brother De Welt requested that I give this prologue concerning his comments on First and Second Timothy and Titus. He is my “Timothy” and being; such, I know him and his background, and what we can expect from him in this field. Brother De Welt is a talented man in his presentation as well as being a deep student of the Word of God, His many books now in print give evidence of his labors and their wide acceptance. He is a man of deep convictions based on study. I expect this latest effort to surpass his former works, because this is his strongest field, evangelism. He has had much experience in evangelism, and has had years of proving by test his ideas as he has trained young men to “do the work of an evangelist.” This book should be very practical. I appreciate brother De Welt because of his character. He is one of God’s scarce personalities who appreciate the efforts of others. He is quick to express gratitude for the part others have played in his life and he deserves heaven’s blessings upon his own labors. I pray God will bless the efforts put forth in this work especially planned for Evangelists. Sincerely, A, Word, 11 GENERAL INTRODUCTION There are several very important questions to be answered before we can proceed with an exegetical study of the letter of Paul to Thothy. 1. Did Paul actually write this letter? Of course we know I Timothy 1:l says he did, but there are those who hold a different opinion, Why would anyone deny the plain state- ment of the text as to the authorship? Such a conclusion is based upon a presupposition, It is presupposed by some that the books of the New Testament were not written in the first century nor by the persons whose names they bear. What shall we say to these things? It would be an easy matter to simply deny the accusation, but this would also be a presupposition. It is not the purpose of this text to give an exhaustive study of the subject. Others have done a splendid service in answering this charge, We refer you to them for the details necessary. Read: New Testament Commentary - Exposition of The Pastoral Epistles by Wm. Hendriksen pp, 4-33; TJze Pastoral Epistles by Homer A. Kent, Jr. pp, 24-71 j An Interpretation Of St. Paul’s Epistles To the Colossians, to the Thessalonians, to Timothy, to Titus and to Philemon, by R. C. H. Lenslri pp. 473-484, The Pastoral Epistles by Donald Guthrie pp, 11-53. 2, Where was Paul when he wrote these letters? Was Paul in jail at Rome awaiting his execution? Was Paul released after his first imprisonment? These questions might not appear pertinent to our study, but they most assuredly are. Here is another question of vital importance: Does the book of Acts contain a continuous, complete record of the life of Paul? At this juncture someone is sure to ask, “what difference does it make?” Well, it just so happens that there are events mentioned in I and I1 Timothy and Titus that can not be harmonized with the account of Paul’s life in the book of Acts.

    St. Timothy Lutheran Church Our Lord Our Baptism of If you are a visitor with us today, we welcome you in the name of Christ. We encourage our guests to join us in the communion meal because Jesus welcomes all to his table of grace, uniting and filling us for love and service. Christ is our host and our food, bearing to us God’s forgiveness and grace through this harvest of field and vineyard. The Baptism of Our Lord January 10, 2021 Our re-creation in baptism is an image of the Genesis creation, where the Spirit of God moved over the waters. Both Mark’s gospel and the story in Acts make clear that it is the Spirit’s move- ment that distinguishes Jesus’ baptism from John’s. The Spirit has come upon us as upon Jesus and the Ephesians, calling us God’s beloved children and setting us on Jesus’ mission to re- create the world in the image of God’s vision of justice and peace. GATHERING Prelude Welcome Gathering Litany The leader reads the portions in regular print and all respond with the parts in bold. In the beginning when God created the heavens and the earth, the earth was a formless void and darkness covered the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God swept over the face of the waters. Today the Spirit sweeps over us. And heaven declares, “You are my beloved one; with you I am well pleased.” Today the Uncreated One comes to the waters of the Jordan. And reconciles all creation to the Creator.

  • First Corinthians 1 Corinthians 3:1-4:21: Paul and Apollos: The
    First Corinthians 1 Corinthians 3:1-4:21: Paul and Apollos: The Meaning of “Apostle” Paul was the founder of the Corinthian church, and Apollos apparently followed him as a leader of the church not long after. While the author of the Book of Acts undoubtedly told the story of the early church with his own biases, it seems reasonable to suppose that his description of Apollos is trustworthy. “Now there came to Ephesus a Jew named Apollos, a native of Alexandria. He was an eloquent man, well-versed in the scriptures. He had been instructed in the Way of the Lord; and he spoke with burning enthusiasm and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, though he knew only the baptism of John.” (Acts 18:24-25) We saw in reading 1 Corinthians 1 that the Corinthians were divided into groups based in part on the leader each group claimed for its own: “I belong to Paul. I belong to Apollos.” Others say “I belong to Cephas (Peter)” and some even apparently say, “I belong to Jesus.” It is unclear why exactly the Cephas party and the Jesus party (if there was one) differed from the Paul party, but we can make some guesses about those who followed Apollos. If Acts is right that Apollos was an “eloquent man” it seems quite possible that the Corinthians contrasted him with Paul, who preceded him. Paul says of himself “When I came to you brothers and sisters, I did not come proclaiming the mystery of God to you in lofty words of wisdom.

  • The Theology of the Epistle to Titus
    THE THEOLOGY OF THE EPISTLE TO TITUS Of the three epistles in the Pauline corpus collectively designated as the Pastoral Epistles, that to Titus is most blatantly a theological compo- sition1. Its epistolary salutation mentions God (‡eóv) five times, three times with a descriptive epithet, “who never lies” (âceudßv), “our Sav- ior” (ö swt®r ™m¬n), and “Father” (patßr). In addition there is the description of Paul as “a servant of God” (doÕlov ‡eoÕ) and a mention of “the faith of God’s elect” (pístiv êklekt¬n ‡eoÕ). In some respects it is not so much the quantity and quality of this explicitly theological lan- guage that is significant as it is the fact that these five references to God appear in an epistolary salutation. THE EPISTOLARY FORMAT These references to God are more numerous than one would expect. No other epistolary salutation in the New Testament contains as many occurrences of the word “God” as that of the epistle to Titus. Even the long epistolary salutation of the letter to the Romans contains but four references to God. The other letters and epistles in the Pauline corpus contain but one (Philippians; 1 Thessalonians; Philemon), two (Gala- tians; Ephesians; Colossians; 1 Timothy; 2 Timothy), or three (1 Corinthians; 2 Corinthians) such references. It is likewise sure that each of the five references to God in the salutation of the epistle to Titus is theologically significant. God is identified in terms of the attributes of truth, paternity, and salvation. An individual human and a human collec- tivity are respectively identified in terms of their service to God and their having been chosen by God.

  • An Investigation Into the Version That Shaped European Scholarship on the Arabic Bible
    Collectanea Christiana Orientalia 18 (2021): 237-259 Vevian Zaki Cataloger of Arabic Manuscripts Hill Museum and Manuscript Library Visiting Researcher Faculty of History University of Oxford The “Egyptian Vulgate” in Europe: An Investigation into the Version that Shaped European Scholarship on the Arabic Bible Introduction In the years from 1818 to 1821, August Scholz (1792–1852), a Catholic orientalist and biblical scholar, made many journeys to libraries across Europe seeking New Testament (NT) manuscripts. He wrote an account of his travels in his book Biblisch-kritische Reise, and in this book, Scholz wrote about all the NT manuscripts he encountered in each library he visited, whether they were in Greek, Latin, Syriac, or Arabic.1 What attracts the attention when it comes to the Arabic NT manuscripts is that he always compared their texts to the text of the printed edition of Erpenius.2 This edition of the Arabic NT was prepared in 1616 by Thomas Erpenius (1584-1624), the professor of Arabic studies at Leiden University—that is, two centuries before the time of Scholz. It was the first full Arabic NT to be printed in Europe, and its text was taken from Near Eastern manuscripts that will be discussed below. Those manuscripts which received particular attention from Scholz were those, such as MS Vatican, BAV, Ar. 13, whose text was rather different from that of Erpenius’s edition.3 1 Johann Martin Augustin Scholz, Biblisch-Kritische Reise in Frankreich, der Schweiz, Italien, Palästina und im Archipel in den Jahren 1818, 1819, 1820, 1821 (Leipzig: Fleischer, 1823). 2 Thomas Erpenius, ed.

  • Answer Is Found in the Methodology One Employs in Sermon DEVELOPMENT and DELIVERY
    S Y L L A B U S I. COURSE DESCRIPTION This preaching module is designed for Filipino urban pastors and lay ministers of the Word who desire to be trained in the development and delivery of expository sermons. This course advocates a particular definition of expository preaching and builds on that definition. It proposes, explains and illustrates a three-step process of preparing expository sermons: The Exegetical Investigation, The Theological Reflection and The Homiletical Presentation. This preaching methodology also examines several cultural elements and contemporary trends confronting today’s Filipino urban preachers and applies them to the biblical model of expository preaching. To recapture the biblical concept of preaching, biblical and theological foundations are established. A word study on the biblical words related to the task of preaching is included to discover what makes preaching truly biblical. Literature regarding hermeneutics and homiletics were consulted and analyzed to ascertain the best possible methodology of preparing and delivering sermons, suited to the nuances and sensibilities of the Filipino culture. Preaching solidly explained, vividly illustrated and powerfully applied sermons calls for commitment to excellence. This is what The Apollos Project is all about: “Pursuing Excellence in Preaching: A Module on the Development and Delivery of Expository Sermons for Filipino Preachers.” This preaching seminar will help students … … Discover what it means and what it involves to be an expository preacher; … Develop skills in preparing expository sermons; … Deepen one’s passion for expository preaching; and … Dedicate one’s self to excellence in preaching.

  • Title: “Apollos the Expositor Apologist” Introduction: a Jewish Man Named
    Title: “Apollos the Expositor Apologist” Introduction: A Jewish man named Apollos, who had become a believer in Jesus Christ went to Ephesus to minister to the disciples there. Apollos was from Alexander which was known as an education center. He had apparently received good biblical instruction, and was enthusiastic for the things of God. When Apollos than met Achaia and Priscilla who offered to help expand his Bible knowledge. Apollos than proceeded to preach an apologetically on the Deity of Christ. Propositional Question: If God’s Word has been preserved, shouldn’t we learn every word? Text: Acts 18:24-28 “And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus. This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John. And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him unto them, and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly. And when he was disposed to pass into Achaia, the brethren wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him: who, when he was come, helped them much which had believed through grace: For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publickly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ.” CONTEXT: Who: Acts was written by Dr. Luke. What: Apollos the Expositor made the case for Christ’ Diety. Where: The message was delivered in Galatia and Phrygia. When: The epistle of Acts was written in 63 AD.

  • 1 & 2 Timothy, Titus & Philemon
    Notes & Outlines 1 TIMOTHY 2 TIMOTHY TITUS PHILEMON Dr. J. Vernon McGee PASTORAL EPISTLES The two letters to Timothy and the one to Titus are labeled Pastoral Epistles. The contents of the letters reveal the obvious reason for this. They were written by Paul to two of his young converts (1 Timothy 1:2; Titus 1:4) who had followed him on many of his missionary jour- neys and whom he had established as pastors of churches at the time of the writing of these epistles. Although they were addressed by Paul to his young friends in the ministry, the message is for churches. He gave instructions for the orderly procedure of local and visible churches. These letters have a particular message to young pastors, and they have pertinent instructions for the present-day church. 1 TIMOTHY WRITER: Paul DATE: About A.D. 64 Probably Paul was released from prison at Rome between A.D. 64 and 67. If this is accurate, it was during this interval that he wrote this first letter to Timothy. He wrote to Titus at this same time. Some authorities think that Paul wrote from Macedonia. Apparently he had left Timothy in Ephesus (1 Timothy 1:3), and he wrote this letter to encourage and assist him (1 Timothy 6:20). THEME: Government and order in the local church. This is in contrast to the Epistle to the Ephesians where the church is the body of Christ, the invisible church. Here it is a local assembly of believers organized for a common purpose. KEY VERSES: As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine.

But frequently a blackboard on which to sketch a map, or a large map itself, is not available; or perhaps one may be sitting too far away to see the details of a map dearly. To make it easy for each member personally to •locate the scene of the story for the week, future Sabbath School Quarterlies will contain a map of the field to which the "Overflow" goes. This will be a regular feature. Study the map at home also, and watch the onward progress of the message in all the world. Seventh-day Adventists should be conversant with the geog- raphy of all lands, and should follow intelligently every development of our world-wide work. THE OVERFLOW PLAN The Autumn Council (1933) voted to restore the slogan "Dollar Day" as the goal for Sabbath schools in North America. A new schedule also was adopted for the "Overflow" offering on the Thir- teenth Sabbath. When $60,000 is reached on a Thirteenth Sabbath, $1,000 over and above the regular appropriation will go to the field designated as the objective for that quarter.

  • Wisdom About Divisions
    Chapter 1 Wisdom about Divisions 1 Corinthians 1–2 UNDERSTANDING Pages 10 - 15 DISCUSSION Pages 16 - 22 Understanding / Wisdom about Divisions UNDERSTANDING WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS PASSAGE? Read 1 Corinthians 1–2 The Big Picture St. Paul’s solution to the divisions in Corinth is to look to the cross. Chapters 1 and 2 immediately dive into the problems and culture of the church in Corinth. The community appears as a sick patient; St. Paul serves as a doctor who quickly identifies the illness (division) while figuring out one of the root causes (worldly wisdom). Introduction (1 Corinthians 1:1–9) St. Paul begins by identifying himself as an apostle and also mentions Sosthenes as an author of the letter. (Sosthenes is most likely a convert ruler of the Corinthian synagogue named in Acts 18:17.) As he has done in other letters, St. Paul tries to lift his readers’ eyes to what they are called to—heaven (v. 2). Despite the problems and immorality in the Corinthian church, St. Paul has no problem identifying them as saints (v. 2). Sainthood does not always equal perfection; at its root, it is instigated by God’s calling and grace in our lives, not our own virtue (CCC 1996–99). Verses 4–9 also introduce several main themes found in the letter as a whole: knowledge, speech, spiritual gifts, the day of the Lord, and fellowship. Divisions (1 Corinthians 1:10–17) In this section, St. Paul contrasts the fellowship they have in Jesus Christ (v. 9) with their divisions.
